Law Firm Files Suit Against ‘Suge’ Knight

Share

Jailed rap mogul Marion “Suge” Knight was hit with another multimillion-dollar fraud lawsuit, this one filed by his former legal team, accusing him of cheating the firm out of more than $600,000 in fees during the 1990s.

The suit, brought by McPherson & Kalmansohn in Los Angeles County Superior Court, follows last month’s $25-million default judgment against Knight.

Industry analysts say the ruling could lead to the forfeiture of Knight’s valuable

Death Row Records catalog, with hits by Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg and the Dogg Pound. The judgment stemmed from a fraud lawsuit filed by former Dogg Pound member Daz Dillinger and a Philadelphia company called Organized Crime Family, which accused Knight of cheating Dillinger out of royalties.
